On this day 2006 at Laddow Rocks on the Pennine Way. Still in use but a little worn out, just like me
One of the fire damaged areas at Crowden #PeakDistrict #Landscape Bracken is winning the regeneration race
Crowden in Longdendale. The Pennine Way footpath aided by the wind direction acted as a firebreak all along this section from Crowden to Laddow Rocks. #PeakDistrict #Landscape
Woodhead Reservoir today - water level for the record 5th Sept 2026
We had a beautiful Female Whinchat on a regularly watched fence line in Padfield. It posed beautifully close enough for a great photo. If only I had my camera. I rushed back with camera but never re-found it. @derbyshirebirds.bsky.social
Why no mention of the Annual and Weekly Pass options. For regulars or holidaymakers it’s a win win. @peakdistrict.bsky.social
3 Spotted Flycatchers at the South side of Ingbirchworth Reservoir #UKBirding @shefbirdstudy.bsky.social
Very windy during out short walk but a few birds were seen including a juvenile Linnet and the only one of the no doubt many Meadow Pipits to appear on the walls.
Grey Heron posing nicely this afternoon on my local walk

Bizarre is what it is. Will they cover the next announcement which must be going to be about ‘Modern‘ workhouses built by the people for the people at no cost to the taxpayer (Satire just in case there is any doubt)
Richard Sambrook@sambrook.eurosky.social · last mo.BBC’s coverage of Reform’s welfare plans is frankly bizarre. Headlines in Ten, leading on some radio networks. Reform are not even the official opposition and the plans have less credibility than Count Binface. Will BBC News do the same for Lib Dem and Greens policy two years out from an election?
